Music Before 1800

NYC's hometown early music series. Music Before 1800 is the city’s longest-running series devoted exclusively to early music. Louise Basbas, the founder and director of MB1800, has been presenting some of the finest vocal and instrumental early music in the world at Corpus Christi Church for over 40 years. The New Yorker praised MB1800, calling it “the essential series.” We've proudly been handling publicity and marketing efforts for the series since the 2013-14 season.
